Abstract

This work deals with the simulation model of multi-machines system as cold rolling mill is considered as application. Drivers of rolling system are a set of DC motors, which have extend applications in factories as aluminum rolling. Interconnection of multi DC motors in such a way that they are synchronized in their rotational speed. In cold rolling, the accuracy of the strip exit thickness is a very important factors. To realize accuracy in the strip exit thickness, Automatic Gauge Control system is used. In this paper MATLAB/SIMULINK models are proposed and implemented for the entire structures. Simulation results were presented to verify proposed model of cold rolling mill.
